agricultural coffee at kayuamba village kinatamani
welcome to taman nadi one off agriculture in kayuamba village
is a farming village, but the local farmer do not plant rice like most other areas. But tourists can see many other kind of tropical plants which become export comodity. Coffee, cocoa, clove, cinamon, passion fruit are some of the plants growing well at kayuamba village. Visitors are invited to try the sample of Bali coffee, or Bali chocolate. Bali coffee is known to bhave a strong taste and powerful caffein. This coffee is a blend of arabica and robusta coffee. In old days, arabica is grown a lot in Bali. But nowadays robusta coffee is grown more because it is chepae, produce more coffee and easier to process. Robusta coffee is more popular in Bali, while in the e3stern hemisphere, arabica is more popular.
Kopi is the Indonesian word for COFFEE. Luwak is a local name of the Asian palm civet in Sumatra. Kopi Luwak or

civet coffee, is coffee made from the beans of coffee berries which have been eaten by the Asian Palm Civet(Paradoxurus hermaphroditus)and other related civets, then passed through its digestive tract. A civet eats the berries for their fleshy pulp. In its stomach, proteolytic enzymes seep into the beans, making shorter peptides and more free amino acids. Civets also eat small vertebrates, insects, ripe fruits and seeds.
Passing through a civet’s intestines the beans are then defecated, having kept their shape. After gathering, thorough washing, sun drying, light roasting and brewing, these beans yield an aromatic coffee with much less bitterness, widely noted as the most expensive coffee in the world. Kopi Luwak is produced mainly on the islands of Sumatra, Java, Bali and Sulawesi in the Indonesian Archipelago. Kopi luwak is a name for many specific cultivars and blends of arabica, robusta, liberica, excelsa or other beans eaten by asian Palm civets (LUWAK), hence the taste can vary greatly. Nonetheless, kopi luwak coffees have a shared aroma profile and flavor characteristics, along with their lack of bitterness. Kopi luwak tastes unlike heavy roasted coffees, since roasting levels range only from cinnamon color to medium, with little or no caramelization of sugars within the beans as happens with heavy roasting. Moreover, kopi luwak which have very smooth profiles are most often given a lighter roast. Iced kopi luwak brews may bring out some flavors not found in other coffees.

Kopi Luwak and “thought it was a joke.” But Karno was intrigued, found it it was for real, and ordered a pound for a tasting. Karno sent out releases to the local press inviting them to a cupping. When no one responded, he roasted it and held a cupping for himself and his employees. Karno is very enthusiastic, a convert to Kopi Luwak. “It’s the best coffee I’ve ever tasted. It’s really good, heavy with a caramel taste, heavy body. It smells musty and jungle-like green, but it roasts up real nice. The LA Times didn’t come to our cupping, but ran a bit in their food section, which hit the AP Wire service.” And Karno and the folks at M.P. Mountanos have been inundated with calls ever since.
Unlike rice cultivation, which requires dedicated fields, at taman nadi Agrowisata the plants are intercropped. That means that as you walk the shady paths you will find coffee plants next to vanilla beans around the corner from cocoa plants, with ginger and lemon grass growing along the edges. Stop and smell the spices!

It is sold by weight mainly in Japan and the United States and served in Southeast Asian coffeehouses by the cup. The beans are washed out and given only a medium/light roast so as not to destroy the complex flavors that develop through the process.
Kopi Luwak or Civet Coffee, is very special for coffee lovers. This Coffee is very popular, even it ever been reported in Oprah Winfrey Show TV program
n November 2006 Herveys Range Heritage Tea Rooms, a small cafe in the hills outside Townsville in Queensland, Australia, put kopi luwak coffee on its menu at AUD 50.00 (US $33.00) a cup, selling about seven cups a week, which gained nationwide Australian and international press. In April 2008 the brasserie at Peter Jones department store in London’s Sloane Square began selling a blend of kopi luwak and Blue Mountain called Caffe Raro for £50 (US $99.00) a cup.

In fact, most of MountaMountanos says, “It’s the most complex coffee I’ve ever tasted,” attributing the unusual flavors to the natural fermentation the coffee beans undergo in the paradoxurus’ digestive system. The stomach acids and enzymes are very different from fermenting beans in water. Mountanos says, “It has a little of everything pleasurable in all coffees: earthy, musty tone, the heaviest bodied I’ve ever tasted. It’s almost syrupy, and the aroma is very unique.” While it won’t be turning up in every neighborhood cafe any day soon, Mountanos reports that Starbucks bought it for cuppings within the company.nos’ customers have bought it for special cuppings. The Coffee Critic in San Mateo, California, though, occasionally sells Kopi Luwak to the public for US$ 5 a cup. Owner Linda Nederman says she keeps the price low to allow people to experience the coffee.
Nederman says that most of her people who try it are longtime customers, and they’re “game to try something different and unusual. I’ve never had anybody complain, they all seem to feel it’s worth the price.” Nederman drinks it herself every time they brew it. “I’ve never tasted anything like it. It’s an unbelieveable taste in your mouth: richness, body, earthiness, smooth.” She also carries Jamaica Blue Mountain, Burundi Superior AA and Brazil FZA “Natural Dry,” so her customers are used to fine and exotic coffees. Still, she reports, many are afraid to try Kopi Luwak.
Is it worth the money? Five dollars for a single cup? Sure, why not? You’ll pay more than that in Bali where the Kopi Luwak is produced and you will get exotic and unforgetable moment which you can combain with the fantastic view of our Islan of the GOD, Bali.

sanur bali
Sanur is one of the main beach resort areas on the south coast of Bali, located NE of the airport in Tuban. Sanur’s history goes back a long way, with some of the oldest recorded writing on the island still preserved at the small temple at Prasasti Blanjong on Jl. Danau Poso. The ancient text, dating back to the 10th Century, is inscribed on stone pillar locked in a glass cabinet only about 10 meters from the street. Wrapped in cloth, you can just manage to see a bit of the writing sticking out. The inscriptions detail the arrival of a Javanese king in Bali of the Mahayana Buddhist kingdom, another cultural / religious influence.
Located 18km from the airport, Sanur is a a handy place for a new arrival. Airport taxis might charge around 70,000rp to Sanur and the journey is around 20-25 minutes. For people choosing Sanur over Kuta or Nusa Dua, the advantages are a less intense atmosphere than Kuta and a more genuine one than Nusa Dua. Sanur was the location Bali’s first large scale hotel, the Grand Bali Beach, but so far that is the only one of it size. The hotel suffered a fire in 1992 destroying much of the hotel. One room was totally untouched and the Balinese dedicate that room as a shrine, never to be occupied. Being a fishing village traditionally, Sanur retains its local flavour even though the busy Bypass Ngurah Rai passes through and the main street, Jl. Danau Tamblingan is wall to wall shops and restaurants.
Sanur geography:
Sanur is made up of 7 small districts, joined together seamlessly by the Bypass and tourist trade infrastructure. Driving from Kuta the main points you’ll see on the Bypass are the Macro supermarket on the left side on the very southern end of Sanur before Jl. Danau Poso. As the Bypass swings through and heads left the main features you’ll notice are the McDonalds at the junction with Jl. Segara Ayu and the KFC at the junction with Jl. Hang Tuah in the north.
•Semawang:
The coastal strip to the south of Sanur from the Bali Hyatt to
Hotel Sanur Beach. This part of the beach is quiet and you will see the brightly colored jukung (local fishing boats).

Being a fishing village traditionally, Sanur retains its local flavour even though the busy Bypass Ngurah Rai passes through and the main street, Jl. Danau Tamblingan is wall to wall shops and restaurants.
Sanur has a reef making it ideal for surfers and also people with young kids inside the reef. Sanur does not get a strong beach break like Kuta / Seminyak. Swimming is only possible at high tide as low tide exposes the reef. Swimming outside the reef is not recommended.
Sanur nightlife is basically the local bar and restaurant scene, with the odd place such as the Cat & Fiddle pub providing live music. There are no real nightclubs in Sanur and the younger party crowd do not frequent the area as much.
One of the most pleasant aspects of Sanur is its large expanse of beach front. A footpath covers the entire 5kms allowing visitors to stroll along and explore, stopping when they feel like it for a drink or snack at a beach side restaurant. The sand quality is good in Sanur, yellowish in color and fairly clean. The best spots of beach are in the outside the Inna Grand Bali Beach hotel in the north and outside the Gazebo hotel in the south.
Looking back to the 20th century, Bali attracted a number of famous expats including Australian artist Donald Friend, Belgian artist Adrien Jean Le Mayeur de Merpes and author Vicki Baum who wrote ‘A Tale of Bali’.
